Boom Herron-Below AverageNEEDS: O-Line Depth: Castonzo is good, Mewhort showed flashes as a rookie and signing Herremans was a good move. However they need major upgrades at RT and C. With his ability to play C and OT, Cameron Irving would be the perfect player to target at #29D-Line Depth: They signed Langford to play the five technique but upgrades are needed up front at the 3 technique and nose tackle.DB Depth: Davis' is a star and deserves to be mentioned among the best corners in the league along with Revis, Sherman, Haden and Peterson. The rest of the secondary is very suspect.RB: Gore may be the 2015 answer, but they need a young back for the future.Backup QB: Current backup Matt Hasselbeck will be 40 this year.ILB UpgradesGREEN BAY PACKERSPicks in first 3 rounds: 30, 62, 94

James Starks-AverageNEEDS: Both ILB's: They had to move Clay Matthews inside last year due to lack of skill inside. It helped the defense as a whole but took away from his pass rush ability on the outside. Finding a play maker or two at ILB is draft priority number one.D-Line Depth: Datone Jones has been a disappointment so far and BJ Raji isn' the same impact player he was two years ago.DB Depth: The starters are good but they lost crucial depth in Davon House and Tramon Williams. Along with that. Casey Hayward will be a free agent next year and will want more money than the Packers are willing to spendBackup QB: Matt Flynn is still a free agent and Scott Tolzien is the only other QB on the current roster.Scat Back/Kick Returner: Lacy and Starks are usually enough, but if they were to add a scat back, it would add another element the the best offense in the league.

NEEDS: RG and LG: The Pats are good at both OT spots and rookie Bryan Stork looked like a solid starter last year. However both guard spots need major upgrades. Look for New England to use an early pick to help fix the line. DT: They lost Vince Wilfork and it will take multiple players to replace a star like that.DB Depth: Once they knew they were losing Revis, it was imperative that they keep McCourty, still more help is needed on the back end.Speed WR: Gronk is a superstar and is pretty much unstoppable in the Red Zone. Edleman is great underneath and LaFell is good at working the sidelines. They can still use a deep threat to stretch the defense and prevent double teams on Gronk and Edelman.

NEEDS: O-Line Starters and Depth: Okung is good, but the rest of the line is average. Expect multiple picks in the middle rounds to help improve the line. WR: They added a superstar TE in Graham. They could use another play make on the outside.D-Line Depth: Seattle couldn't get any pressure on Tom Brady in the Super Bowl once Cliff Avril got injured. Pete Carroll will look to find another speed rusher in the late rounds.DB Depth: The strength of the team is the secondary. The starters are great, maybe the best in the league, but more depth is neededBackup QB:
